About This Topic

Water environmental pollution becomes worse and worse, it is urgent for us to develop advanced technology. Organics, heavy mental ions, nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, saline and alkali are the dominant pollutants in water or wastewater, these pollutants should be removed efficiently. The topic of this Special Issue is advanced technologies or treatments for water or wastewater, such as advanced oxidation processes, adsorption, desalination, membrane separation and model simulation etc. The manuscript should be prepared well before submitted, including technical and writing aspects.

Open Access Original Research Treatment of Contaminated Water Collected from River Getsi Using Enhanced Natural Coagulant Prepared from Chrysophyllum Albidium Seeds by Paul Ocheje Ameh  , Joseph Ameh  , Amina Bello Mahmoud  , Adabiyya Rabiu Shuaib  , Aroh Augustina Oyibo  , Fadeyi Sulayman Olusola  , Isaiah Blessing Imeh  , Egbe Hope Thankgod  , Ajagbonna Damilola Lilian  and Bitrus Nehemiah Received: 31 March 2025;  Published: 15 July 2025;  doi: 10.21926/aeer.2503026 Abstract The high cost of chemical coagulants for water treatment leads most people in rural communities to resort to readily available surface water, which is usually of low quality, exposing them to various waterborne diseases. It is in this light, that research was conducted to assess the effectiveness of a cheap enhanced natural coagulant prepared [...]

Open Access Original Research Chemical Regeneration of Activated Carbon Used in A Water Treatment System for Medical Services by Jeamichel Puente Torres  , Harold Crespo Sariol  , Thayset Mariño Peacok  , Ángel Brito Sauvanell  , Greet Cuyvers  , Guy Reggers  , Pieter Samyn  , Dries Vandamme  , Jan Yperman  , Peter Adriaensens  and Robert Carleer Received: 25 October 2022;  Published: 21 April 2023;  doi: 10.21926/aeer.2302028 Abstract The chemical regeneration of exhausted granular activated carbon (GAC) from a water treatment plant to produce dialysis water used in hemodialysis treatments for chronic renal disease patients from a general Hospital of Ciego de Avila province, Cuba, was investigated. Activated carbon (AC) exhausted mainly by inorganics (Ca (Ca-chelates), [...]
